Problems running make check on Solaris 6, 7 & 8

['David Scott Urban]

I am trying to upgrade to the latest version of autoconf on our solaris 
machines. We have machines running solaris 6, 7 & 8. They all exhibit the same 
beahvior when running make check. Also, this behavior does not change when 
using 
either gcc 2.95.3 or 3.0.x.

After entering make check and the initial start up has completed, you have to 
hit the enter key to get the testsuite to begin executing.

For the following tests, you to hit enter key for them to complete:

 10: tools.at:447      
ok
 11: tools.at:474      
ok
 23: base.at:213       
ok
 24: base.at:232       

Then, the testsuite hangs on 25: torture.at:48. I left it on that test when I 
went home last night and it is still there this morning. I even tried the enter 
key like previous test. But, that didn't help.

I am compiling using the native sun as and ld. Everything is compiled the same 
in that respect.

Thanks,
